Company Review

Trend Analysis

ELECTRICITY NORTH WEST LIMITED generally demonstrates strong payment velocity with an average payment time of 19 days. While 76% of invoices are settled within 30 days, a noticeable 23% fall into the 31-60 day bracket, indicating a split in payment speed. This suggests a consistent trend of timely, but not uniformly immediate, payments for the majority.

Volatility Analysis

Payment predictability is generally high, with the majority of payments processed within 30 days and only 1% extending beyond 60 days. However, the 23% of payments falling between 31 and 60 days introduces a moderate degree of variability, meaning not all invoices will be settled rapidly. Suppliers should anticipate that while extreme delays are rare, some payments may extend beyond standard 30-day terms.

Summary Analysis

ELECTRICITY NORTH WEST LIMITED is assessed as a generally reliable payer, making them a favorable partner for suppliers. Key decision factors include their excellent average payment time and minimal long-tail risk. Suppliers should nevertheless account for the 23% of payments that may extend into the 31-60 day range by maintaining appropriate working capital or negotiating favorable payment terms if liquidity is critical.
